Not everyone in Fort Myers has window tinting and although it may seem like a good idea to apply window film to your car windows, don’t forget about your house!
UV rays from the sun can easily penetrate your windows at home which can increase your cooling costs and also leave you more susceptible to skin cancer.
In you live in Florida, window tinting is especially important in the Sunshine State!
How can you protect yourself from harmful UVB and UVA rays?
Well, you could try slathering yourself with sunblock everyday…although that could become quite bothersome and uncomfortable very quickly. A better alternative is professionally installed window film with UVShield™ technology.
See, the problem with ordinary glass in windows and doors is that it doesn’t block UVA rays, which account for 90% of the sun’s most damaging rays and are present all day. In fact, more than 1 million new cases of skin cancer are diagnosed each year.
It is also one of the fastest growing types of cancer, and UV exposure during our youth is a leading contributer. One in five Americans will develop some form of skin cancer. Where do you think the majority of these cases originate from? Hint: It’s not Alaska. ;)
The good news is that window films with UVShield™ technology block 99.9% of harmful Ultraviolet B (UVB) and deep penetrating Ultraviolet A (UVA) rays. Beverly Hills Window tinting can install these types of films in your home, commercial building, and vehicle. Be sure to ask for either Llumar or VISTA films because all of these films with UVShield™ technology carry The Skin Cancer Foundation’s seal of recommendation, which ensures that a sun protection product is safe and effective.
